Still not as bad as chmod -R 777.

Once had a friend run sudo chmod -R 777 / on a (public) Minecraft server we were running back in highschool. It made me die a bit on the inside.

Doesn't it break a lot of things? Half the stuff refuses to work when some specific files have too permissive chmod.

Really only SSH and sudo broke. sudo would still work but you'd have to re-enter your password every time. It was a painful experience and I'm glad I know better now.
